Green Smoothies: The Weight Loss & Detox Ebook by Jonathan Vine

I love green smoothies, but I am always afraid of what to put in them in fear of the out coming taste (have you ever huiced an onion??) When I had a chance to review this book in exchange for review I knew I just HAD to have it. This book is great for any beginner who is looking to add more fruits and veggies to their diet to help improve over all health, with an added bonus of potential weight loss or for those hard core dieters who just want some new variety in their smoothies.

For me juicing and smoothies are nothing new. All though the first few chapters are very informative for BEGINNERS with details as to how smoothies are good for you, what they can do for you and why and all that, I personally got bored with them and felt they were repetitive. But again, I am not a newbie to this whole concept, which would explain why I felt that way.

After the first few chapters you finally get into the good stuff, the recipes! Like I said I have been a bit nervous about trying certain veggies in my smoothies and not sure what to blend them with. This book has offered so many varieties I was shocked. I was even more shocked to find out how much I actually like kale and spinach in my smoothies too. So many recipes you can have a different one every, plus once you get comfortable with trying new things, its easy to come up with your own unique variations that you love.

One thing I really liked about this book despite not being new to being healthy is that each recipe gives you your nutritional facts suchas calories, fat, protien and carbs. I really have to watch my carb intake whether its natural or artificial sugars, due to my hypothyroidism. I don't have much of a metabolism, making it hard to burn calories and carbs, so the fewer the carbs the better for me. I also like how he adds a little tip or fact or replacement idea at the beginning of each recipe.

Over all I would say this a great for beginners looking to get healthy and potentially loose some weight. If you are not new to smothie/juicing concept, and you know the benefits, whys and what fors, skip the first few chapters and dive into the recipes.
